There's no better way to help than to get out and experience the world for yourself. To be a humanitarian is to have concern for, or to help to improve the welfare and happiness of people in need, to work to save lives or to provide alleviation of suffering.
Outreach is an activity of providing services to any populations who might not otherwise have access to those services. A key component of outreach is that the groups providing it are not stationary, but mobile; in other words they are meeting those in need of outreach services at the locations where those in need are. In addition to delivering services, outreach has an educational role, raising the awareness of existing services. It includes identification of under-served population and referral to services.
Outreach is often meant to fill in the gap in the services provided by mainstream government or private services corporations, and it is often carried out by non-profit, nongovernmental organizations. Compared with staff providing traditional services, outreach staff may be less qualified, but are often more highly motivated and passionate about the mission provided.
The essence of Poverty is standing on the beach and thinking that it’s very likely, that you will never have the capacity to arrive to a foreign shore. We ask you to get out there and help to make a difference for those most marginalized and under-served. Help to empower those trapped in the multifaceted hardship of poverty, such that they can aspire to get out there and explore the world and aspire to their dreams.
